Comparison of Internet Stop Smoking Intervention to Usual Care on Smoking Cessation at 6 Months
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Cigarette Smoking, Nicotine Dependence
In brief
The primary goal of this project is to carry out a randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing quit rates of a Spanish/English stop smoking Web site to those of a no-intervention or "quit on your own" control. The investigators have not included a no-intervention condition in previous Web studies and although 20% of participants quit smoking at one year are 20%, obtaining evidence that the investigators interventions yield higher abstinence rates than a no-intervention control is the next logical step. Furthermore, although the investigators Web site was designed in English and Spanish, the investigators success in attracting the U.S. Hispanic/Latino (HL) population in either language has been limited, so this project only will only conduct intensive telephone follow-up of HL smokers and add new recruitment methods to do so.
